Oh man, Leafeon/Roserade is gonna be epic, atleast in my area. Most of the people i know are trying to get together the parts for that deck. But over all I think Chomp variants will run wild again
 
iv play tested mine against dialga chomp and it does pretty great, he ends up running out of poketurns and powersprays superfast lol, and they are all poke powers so dialga x is no biggie, but i havent tried luxchomp yet so i dont kno
 
Oh yeah there's that...though running out of them implies the player doesn't play conservatively but we'll see what happens, i think this season will have lots of comepetive decks involved
 
As long as we're just talking at BRs...

LuxChomp and DialgaChomp will still be good but I think they'll get hated out in a lot of metas. Vileplume, Machamp, etc. are problems that I think will be seen all over.

Machamp will be good but not great without Claydol. It'll succeed but Vileplume will hurt it.

Donphan is the same as Machamp really, maybe a little less trainer reliant.

Gyarados is and will be garbage. When Item Finder and Rescue Energy come out it'll see play again though.

Sableye will be great.

Gengar/Vileplume will be good.

I don't see how Leafeon/Roserade can consistently do well.

Scizor will see play and succeed in varying levels, I believe.
 
IMO right now SP is still the BDIF (sadly...) because it has an answer to everything it seems. Though the best SP build IMO is either Luxchomp w/ dialga or Sablelock.

Anybody who is claiming a multi stage 2 deck is going to be a top deck in the next format obviously is basing everything off theory and hasn't actually tried their idea.

kindra machamp, gechamp and jumpchamp i have all tested and on average won 8-2 to luxchomp, 9-1 to jumpluff, 8-2 to dialgachomp, 5-5, to sablelock.
 
^ i really hope you dont mean that deck you posted for kingdra machamp as the deck u played luxchomp with.
it is obv to me that either you played a terrible luxchomp list/player or you didnt test it at all.
 
Sp will be around no matter what. The decks as a whole all have an entire CONSISTENT trainer/supporter engine much like that of the holon cards back in the day. Sp's are the decks to focus on first before you test against other decks, like Kingdra/donphan/machamp/jumpluff/gangar <- they all have the same goal, get them out asap, attach an energy ,and attack makeing them almost easy to test against. Then theres the newer undaunted decks like vileplume and leafeon which both have their strengths and weaknesses So be smart about what you play and how you play vs these decks.

Leafeon will be to clunky for the next format. SP will dominate, and a well played Gyarados will also do well. Machamp will be decent. Mostly, decks like Leafeon, Jumpluff and a few otheres that would have done fine with Claydol, are going to fail because of how fast SP's are.
 
VileGar can be countered by not playing many trainers and dumping them when you dont need them.

Machamp is going to be really popular since SP will dominate and Non-SP decks lose claydol to set up quickly.

When you run 4/3/4 Machamp you should beat SP decks. You absolutely shouldn't be running 4/3/4 Machamp but I'm not here to help with decks just discuss.
 
I personally think we might be suprised and find Combee/Vespiquen variants do really well. Combee with an e-belt can K.O a Luxray X in 1 turn. Vespiqen from UD stops Garchomp C from sniping. Only problem, like every deck faces, is some of your good bench sitters getting Bright Looked.

Wow. The Combee combo takes to many cards to even play. It would atleast take two turns.

I rather run kingdra even with the lightning weakness.

Technically, it takes 4 or 5 cards.

2 Combees
1 Rare Candy/BTS
1 Vespiquen
1 Energy

Not that hard buddeh :p
 
your vespiqeen on the bench must be damaged.

you need another Queen and memory berry or you will get OHKO'd by anything.

The easiest way to damage the other Queen is Rainbow energy.
which will be a 2 turn process. :thumb:

Like i've said, people will try, and people will fail.
